Dr. Martens

An iconic shoe that started in 1901 as a tough workwear boot went on to become a symbol of self-expression and rebellious attitude when musicians and underground youths began wearing Dr. Martens in the 1960s. Today, the enduring brand continues to cut across class and culture, appealing to a wide range of individuals who have in common a sense of their own unique style.

Great boots that will last
Every fashion blogger I follow wears Dr. Martens. With their influence I too am becoming a fan of the brand. I have been wanting these Chelsea boots for a couple of months now, but couldn’t convince myself that I needed them. After watching every YouTube video and reading every review on google, I finally decided I should add these boots to my collection. The reviews I watched and read didn’t really help me with the sizing and the fit of these boots. So here is my breakdown — I normally wear a size 9 in most shoe brands and an 8 1/2 in slides or loafers. Some reviews say these Chelsea boots run large and to size down, while others says true to size. I find these boots to be true to size. A size 9 fits perfect just like my other Dr. Marten shoes. They are a little hard to put on at the ankle, but the pull tabs make it a easier to slip on. They look heavy, but are light and comfortable when on. The typical Dr. Marten leather is usually more stiff unlike other leather shoes. They will take some time to break in. Overall, I am glad I decided to get these Dr. Marten Chelsea Boots. They will be perfect for rainy days, dressing up, and will last a long time.

Chelsea Boot
These Boots are REALLY tough to get on. I’ve had DM’s for many years so understand they have to be work/broken in, but you shouldn’t have to grit your teeth and only get the Boot on with the aid of a long Shoe Horn!

Good Boots, Price Discrepancy
I am very pleased with my new boots. I think they look good and they fit just right however it takes wearing them a couple times to get them broken in. One thing that concerns me, though, is that I paid $150 for the boots but the price sticker on the box shows it at $145. This would be a 5 star review except for the price discrepancy.

Built for comfort and style!
I am very pleased with the Dr. Martens 2976 Chelsea Boot. Not only it's a nice boot, but it's a well-made, versatile, super comfortable, sturdy boots! Best of all, it doesn't take a week to break them in. You break them in about 3-4 days, whereas the Dr. Martens 1460 Smooth Boot would take roughly a month in order for them to break in, and it caused painful blisters on your heel! The 2976 Chelsea has this nice, soft, flexible full-grain leather with a tumbled texture that it requires little to no breakage and provides maximum comfort. In a nutshell, it's built for comfort and style!

Out of the box these were so comfortable, no break in. My tennis shoe size is 10.5 and I ordered a size 10 and they are perfect, no half size in this shoe. I would recommend if you are deciding to purchase.

Terrific Chelsea boots
Baught these boots for my birthday and I very satisfied. I hope they make them in a nude or camel color. The boots are a great addition for anytype of weather. They keep your feet dry and warm during the rain. I would consider how long you wear them in the hot sun because they don't have ventilation.

Cannot get the shoe on
Ordered this shoe to replace my current Chelsea Docs that are a bit tight. I cannot even get my foot into the shoe because the neck of the boot is so much tighter than my current shoe!
